The creators of Air Pressure will talk about their work and the ways that art-science collaborations illuminate the social, political and ethical issues in the public understanding of science. They will be joined by speakers from Japan to reflect on the Air Pressure project, and discuss examples of disaster and disease in Japan and elsewhere. The symposium will be followed by a concert of contemporary sound art.
